Title: servicing /repairs
Post by: fly on June 24, 2004, 02:02:57 AM
I had my engine rebuild and major service done at rxheaven in horsham, was semi-pleased with their service, but i have a few niggling problems i need to sort out, and need some expert advice on future work/modifications which they dont seem to be much interested in, so i was wondering if there are any good rx7/jap specialists in the london area?

Also if anyone can recommend a good bodywork/sprayshop it would be useful, plus any ideas on how much a good respray in deep metallic blue would set me back?

Ta!

Depends where you are in London.

DS Engineering at Dartford aren\'t specifically an RX specialist so to speak but they do a lot of servicing work for many of the club owners (including myself). They are pretty well versed with RX7\'s and performance cars in general. They also happen to be based next to a chap who is a bodywork speciailist. He\'s a bit of a whiz with the spray gun having seen some of his work (I think he sprayed Clive\'s yellow beast).

There in oakhurst business park, in southwater, its about 15 minutes from horsham.

They are mainly an engineering bay, though the chap who runs it (Nigel) has a passion for rex\'s so they specialise in them mainly.

Also one of the engy\'s working there used to be n.mansells technician...

There tel is 01403 73466

Horsham is a just abit to far from shepherds bush to drive when your not sure wether your cooling is working properly :rolleyes:
